+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.
+# Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and
+# the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.
+# You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines.

+zxbasic: zxbasic (basic compiler for ZXSpectrum)
+zxbasic:
+zxbasic: ZX BASIC is a BASIC "cross compiler". It will compile BASIC
+zxbasic: programs (in your PC) for your ZX Spectrum. ZX BASIC is an
+zxbasic: SDK entirely written in python. The SDK is implemented using
+zxbasic: the PLY (Python Lex/Yacc) compiler tool. It translates BASIC
+zxbasic: to Z80 assembler code, so it is easily portable to other Z80
+zxbasic: platforms (Amstrad, MSX). Other non Z80 targets could also
+zxbasic: be available in the future.
